He will be dry when he comes home. Speak to a social worker.

Answer by Orange Mound Hero
A wonderful local resource is the Memphis Alcohol and Drug Council – Substance Abuse Services: 1430 Poplar Avenue, (901) 274-0056.
They offer referrals and treatment and accept payment on a sliding fee scale based on income. Among other things, they specialize in people involved in the criminal justice system. I believe they only offer outpatient services, but would be able to direct you to an affordable inpatient treatment program if that’s what you feel is needed.
Good luck with your brother.

Is the JUVENILE EDUVENTION PROGRAM considered formal substance/drug abuse COUNSELING or TREATMENT?

Question by Mitch: Is the JUVENILE EDUVENTION PROGRAM considered formal substance/drug abuse COUNSELING or TREATMENT?
here’s the situation. my friend is confused about if the EDUVENTION Program for juveniles is considered drug counseling and/or treatment. When he was 13 years old, he got in trouble with the police for vandalism. his parents suspected he was using drugs and the court gave hima drug test. he popped positive for marujuana. he was NEVER charged with any type of drug chage, he was just orderd to attend an educational class about weed with his parents, it was kind of like DARE. The class was called EDUVENTION-substance abuse educational program. It was only 4 days long, once a week for 4 weeks, he was required to attend this with his parents. So my main question…

1.) Is this EDUVENTION program considered drug COUNSELING and/or TREATMENT?

2.) will this come up on a criminal background check, even though he was NEVER given a drug charge. He was only charged with a misdemeanor vandalism and required to attend this EDUVENTION-educational program with his parents. HE completed everything and is just confused about the whole thing. He doesnt believe it was counseling or treatment because it was just an Educational Program for first time pot smokers, similar to the DARE program.

Please, SERIOUS answers only.

Thanks

Hello! I just want to ask if anybody here has an idea if there are any drug rehabs in Sandy Hook, Connecticut because I have to find one.

Answer by dans_1962
Unfortunately, no one can do interviews with any Drug Rehab in fears of their drug connections ok drug dealers may slip in some drugs to them while in recovery. No information is given out. It’s all confidential. They will only give you basic answers like the cost and the steps taken for Detox. The basic would be assestment testing, group therapy and individual counseling. The best solution to do would be to watch this program called Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew on Thursday night on Vh1. Also, A & E channel has a program called Interventions. You should check it out. If this is another way of not announcing your son has a drug problem and needs help you can always call your Health Insurance Provider for the nearest Mental Health Center or Drug Program. You can call Alnon for many of your resources. You can go to Yahoo and type in Sandy Hook, Conn Drug Rehab Center. You can call any teen hotline for resources in your phone book. I lived with a drug user for nearly 15 years. I will tell you that many rehab centers don’t work for some drug users. They do have a strict regimen to follow. First thing they do is a body search. Making sure no drugs have been hidden even a rectal exam is performed. They give you a physical. They do an assessment test or interview. They keep you their for only 3 months unless it’s court ordered to stay for one year. If no one offers to give an interview than go to Yahoo Groups and see if you can find recovery drug users.

That’s a very harsh position. The problem I see is that a certain percentage, however low, are innocent. That means your policy amounts to murder. As we have it, the biggest law our government is breaking is false imprisonment.
